Challenge
Lebara.com’s website and app design had become outdated, creating a significant barrier to growth. The user flow was illogical, with confusing navigation and information architecture that frustrated potential customers, directly impacting conversion rates. Internally, their development and design processes lacked cohesion, leading to inefficiencies and a slow pace of iteration.
Project goals
Lebara needed a partner to modernize its digital ecosystem swiftly and effectively. The core goals were to:
- Redesign key user interfaces (starting with the mobile app and website) to create a logical, intuitive customer journey.
- Establish a collaborative, iterative workflow with their internal development team to ensure seamless implementation.
- Build a sustainable system for ongoing updates, maintenance, and design support across all digital touchpoints.
What We Did
Figured Out What Had to Be Done
Our collaboration began by aligning with Lebara’s team on immediate priorities during a call. The decision was to start with the highest-impact area: the mobile app’s main screen. This would set a new design standard and immediately improve the user experience for a vast portion of their customer base.
Navigating a Complex Corporate Structure
A unique challenge was working through middle management layers rather than directly with executive decision-makers. We adapted by:
Building efficient processes:
We implemented clear documentation and regular syncs to ensure alignment and transparency at every stage.-
Presenting multiple solutions:
For every challenge, we proactively developed several design iterations, thinking out of the box to provide clear options and expedite internal reviews and approvals.

Full-Spectrum Design Support
Our work expanded to encompass all digital needs:

No-Code Development Partnership:
We provided essential support and maintenance for their no-code developed pages, ensuring design integrity and functional performance.
